The LookupTable Component Sample Download

March 8, 1999

Microsoft Corporation

The LookupTable component is an object built for servers running Active Server Pages that provides an extremely efficient read-only lookup table of string (or integer) key-value pairs. It was designed to be used in application scope, and offers better performance for server-side applications than the Visual Basic® Scripting Edition Dictionary object.

The download includes a DLL to run the component as-is on your site (you must register the component on each server you plan to run it from, however), as well as the source code. We've included a Visual Studio .dsw project to allow you to load the component directly into Visual C++, where you can build your own versions of the component and modify it to better suit your needs.

The download package also includes a set of HTML documents outlining the methods and parameters of the LookupTable component, a global.asa file instantiating the LookupTable object, and a sample page that accesses the object using several of the methods available. To run the sample on your site, move Global.asa to the root of the samples directory /Inetpub/IISSamples and stop and restart your Web server to activate the component in application scope. (All this is explained more fully in a readme.txt file included in the download.)
